The club is asking the support of businessmen and tradesmen of the city of McHenry. One reason for this is that for the past 14 years, ever since its organization, the Country Club golf course has brought more than 75,000 visitors to this city, who have brought business to local garages, hotels, restaurants and stores. Many golf clubs in surroun­ ding territory have been unable to stand the trying years of the depression and have failed financially. It is hoped the people of McHenry will put forth an extra effort in helping the Country Club to weather the trying times and to keep it existing until the return of more prosperous conditions. John Bolger, vice-president of the McHenry Country Club, is general chairman of the event. A d v e r t i s e m e n t : J u l y Clearance Sale!

FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of July 13, 1944) McHenry makes the war news again, this time through the flashing back of word to the War department that bombing over Japan had begun. The code word, flashed to the United States last Friday, letting the nation know that the bombing had begun was "Lolly Lolly". That is the name of the wife of Lt. Col. Kenneth Gonseth of McHenry, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jules E. Gonseth of Woodlawn Park, combat wing com­ munications officer at a secret B-29 base in Western China. Word reached the War depart­ ment soon after America's B-29 Superfortresses reached their target over Japan on July 7.

It was sent home recently by Howard Voeltz of the Marines, who said in a letter to his parents, "I took it from a Jap but he didn't need it any more." Howard, it will be recalled, received the Purple Heart award for injuries received in a battle in the South Pacific a few months ago. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of July 9, 1959) The Johnsburg Tigers Saturday boarded Frank Schafer's bus and headed for Stateville for their annual game with the Stateville Trojans. Accompanied by two of McHenry's local businessmen, Joe Gausden and Chuck Miller, they arrived at their destination at 9:15 a.m. After security measures at the entrance, they proceeded to take a tour of the prison workshops and facilities. Among the many places of in­ terest were the Stateville High School, furniture factory, machine shop and the mess hall. In the ball game, at the end of eight innings of play, the score was tied 5 to 5. Wally Frett turned out to be the big gun of the day with three hits, two of which turned out to be big blows. The Johnsburg team included Madden, Frett, Freund, Hiller, Miller, Oeffling, Huff, Novak and Dratz. The congregation of Faith Presbyterian Church will be officially organized by a Commission of the Presbytery of Freeport on Sunday, July 12, at special services in the new church home, located just west of the outdoor theater. Initiated at the beginning of 1958 by the Presbytery's National Missions committee's appointment of Rev. Jack Mclntyre as the organizing minister, the church has progressed through services at the Eastwood Manor com­ munity barn for more than a year to its present full schedule of services and activities in its own church home.
